Speaking at Tralee Garda Station, Crime Prevention Officer Sgt Jim Foley said; “I would like to remind everyone of a few simple tips to keep your home more secure. Secure all doors and window. Light up the house and use timer switches, even when you are out. Store keys safely away from windows and letterboxes. Keep a record of valuables in the house and be sure to note any serial numbers. Don’t keep large amounts of cash at home and always set your alarm even when you are there. If your home is broken into I would urge you to pick up the phone immediately and call us.”

Sgt Foley added; “I would encourage everyone to go onto the Garda website or come into any Garda Station and take the ‘Garda Checklist Challenge’ to see how secure your home is”.
